That's a beauty (the event).
Both the Notice of Race and the registration form can be found on the web site. Event organizer Nevin Sayre wants you to know the following:
"1/ Racing for the Gold Fleet begins Aug 3 with final check-in 1100-1200, Skipper's Meeting 1300, and first possible start 1330 per the Notice of Race (www.vhyc.org). The Silver Fleet is welcome to practice Aug 3, but their official racing is Aug 4 & 5 only. Note that at the US National Championships there are U19, U17, U15, and U13 age groups.
2/ The Silver Fleet for beginning racers is an important part of this event. It is a great opportunity for new windsurfers to improve their skills quickly in a series of very short courses and to learn from our upcoming hot shots. Several sailors have graduated from Silver to Gold Fleet in the last couple of years. If you can get upwind, you are qualified for the Silver Fleet.
3/ We have limited housing in private homes on a first come, first serve basis. We can't promise to put up parents. Additional accommodations is listed on the NOR.
4/ If you are reserving a charter board ($75) please contact me directly at nsayre@aol.com. The charter includes board, fin, straps, and UJ. Charter boards are available for purchase following the event.
5/ This event is part of the U.S. Sailing Junior Olympic series.
Happy windsurfing,
